So to celebrate the kick-off of the 2010 Buckeye football season, Donatos Pizza, an official sponsor of Ohio State Athletics, is throwing a city-wide pizza party for Columbus. On Thursday, September 2, from 3-7 p.m., all Columbus-area Donatos locations will be offering free samples of their new homestyle garlic bread pizza. Guests can stop by their store and receive a free slice of cheese or pepperoni on this new homestyle garlic bread crust.

So whether you’re a pizza fan or a football fan (or both!) you have the chance to grab a free slice before OSU takes the field against the Thundering Herd.

The perfect pregame food before OSU tries to kick off a perfect 13-0 season.
